  • The Files page in a process has two new information fields that show the last date a file was modified and which user last updated it.
  • To facilitate communication in these days of remote work, we have added a new optional field to the Add User dialog for mobile phone numbers.

Note that the old APIs will be deprecated with an end of life in September 2022.
  • Excel file instructions now have two new data range options: “To the bottom right” and “All available data” to allow for more flexible ways to dynamically extract data from worksheets.
  • The “Copy worksheet” instruction is now more user friendly and allows users to copy all worksheets from the source workbook as well as leave the target worksheet name optional.

  • The step order in the Subscriber View is now correct when you have more than 10 steps.
  • Process designers with the Editor permissions for a process are now able to delete steps.

SolveXia v2.3.0

This update establishes a new and significant benchmark in the security and stability of the SolveXia application.

New:

  • We’ve introduced a new way to run the “Run Generic Executable” step type in a more isolated and secure manner within the SolveXia system.

Fixed:

  • We’ve fixed some sneaky password validation bugs that could occur while users were trying to reset or change their old passwords. Now password policies are applied consistently across the system.
  • Previously, when users cloned or created a new data step property, it would appear at the end of the list and this was a little irritating. We’ve reworked this part to make experience with data steps smoother.
  • The SQL editor used to show phantom links to data step properties in queries. We’ve tidied up “the attic” to prevent this behaviour.
  • Some users experienced occasional random failures with a few rarely used step types. Thanks to a couple of“tweaks” in the back end of the system, these no longer occur.

SolveXia v2.2.0

This release brings some architectural changes at the back end to facilitate upcoming new features on our roadmap. Additionally, we’ve addressed a few issues in the Run Excel Calc Model step.

New:

  • We’ve added an option to use extended support in the Copy from Excel to Table instruction. The switch allows to preserve values in a workbook calculated with the newest Excel functions.

New:

  • Our newest navigation panel in the Designer View is now rolled out. It lets you create processes, tables and reports in folders with a flick of a finger.

  • Security is of the utmost importance to us. Always. The new SolveXia FTP steps obfuscate the username and password fields to protect sensitive information.

Fixed:

  • Tables in the SQL Editor and the Admin View portal were not ordered alphabetically. Now they are back to normal.
  • We’ve removed the default value in all data step properties as we realised that it is not used in the system. There is now greater transparency on the value used when you link your data step properties.
  • In the previous version, when you tried to delete the only existing group in your process, the Delete group modal would hang without showing any sign of life. It will now show an error message.
  • We’ve tinkered with the interfaces of some File Instructions to make them consistent across the system.
  • Some formatting rules could not be saved in the email body editor in email steps. This has now been fixed.
  • Our process run execution timeout rules did not take into consideration Email Confirmation and Request File Via Email steps that sometimes can take longer to complete. Now your process won’t be canceled if the waiting time is greater than the default timeout.

Fixed:

  • Run numbers for cloned processes now start from number 1.
  • We've fixed code blocks in the email body editor.

  • A long list of file instruction names was not possible to scroll through. We added a scroll bar to it.

SolveXia v2.0.6

Fixed:

  • There was a very sneaky bug with running processes that had special characters in data step names. You will not get odd messages when you start your processes any more.
  • Table storage amount in different places of the system showed conflicting numbers. It is now consistent across all parts of the system.
  • "Replace if exists" option in Copy Worksheet instruction did not seem to work. We've fixed it.
  • System variables now are showing consistent date values across all places in the system.
  • Some users could not see data in the dashboard widget "15 recent process runs". This is fixed now.
  • If the file upload is failed you can now upload the full error message to see what's wrong. This can be handy when it relates to network issues.

  • SolveXia Announcements widget now supports links.
  • We've updated styles for text block data step properties to make it look even better.
  • Now when you create a process-run with unsaved changes in steps we will save them for you automatically.

Fixed:

  • We've fixed the History link for Clear Table file instruction table links (some of our users could not navigate to history page).
  • Datetime data step property appeared with an additional 0 in the year when linked. We've removed it.
  • It is easier now to switch between processes and preserve opened steps.
  • Various fixes for the application to make it more stable in IE and Safari browsers.
  • Change title names in some instructions from SQL table to Managed table.
  • We've removed confusing settings for some file instructions to make it more clear how they are supposed to work.
  • Several fixes for reports and dashboards.
  • Primary key icon for columns view on managed tables screen is back. It was stolen by aliens.
  • Update syntax for run schedule feature to make it more user friendly.
  • Date picker now has the same settings across all components in the system.

SolveXia 2.0.0

New:

  • We finally say good bye to Silverlight. From this point forward nothing will stop you from using your favourite browser to work in SolveXia.
  • New and fresh redesigned interface of the Designer View. We're not fishing for compliments, but it looks really great ;)
  • Now every time you load SolveXia it will welcome you with the new dashboard.
  • SolveXia is now much more faster: we reduced the time it takes to load the application, folders processes, runs and even more.
  • You can now switch between processes and tables you're working on by using in-app tabs. Every process or table you open is opened as a separate in-app tab similar to browser tabs which gives a great flexibility to switch between them.
  • New permissions access system is now easier to understand and manage. You can assign Executor to the process and know for sure they won't be able to change it, but run.
  • User management moved from the old Designer View to the new SolveXia Admin View available for Client Admins.
  • Conditions in some instructions will do not only AND logic, but OR as well.
  • In order to create a process run you don't have to open a modal and tick the checkbox. Simply press the button.
  • Need to analyse your SQL query results? Here are some news! You can now export SQL editor preview results to csv.
  • We know it is hard to understand complex step dependency logic, and so we've added a preview to the Step Dependency editor to make it easier to read how process steps are going to run.
  • Want to know which steps in your process change a specific file or table? Good news! Now you can filter steps by file or table name to see which of them use it.
  • Instead of deleting column by column in some instructions, you can now specify the range you want to delete.
  • Data steps text block properties now support markdown, and that means you can link even gifs to it.
  • And something you have been waiting for quite a while; User Groups, to help you manage access to your resources in SolveXia with the snap of a finger.

Fixed:

  • Lots and lots of fixes to improve the application stability and reliability.
